Cast of Characters

Have you ever wondered about the people that God has worked through? Do you wonder what happened to them after their brief mention in the Bible? If so, then you need to read Cast of Characters by Max Lucado.
I was so anxious to read this book; I borrowed a copy while I waited for the book to arrive in the mail. I am glad that I didn’t wait. This book takes a look at the ordinary people that God uses to do His work on earth.
This is a book that you do not need to read one chapter at a time. You can flip through and read about the people that you are interested in, or that you want to know more about. Each chapter focuses on a single person and their story. At the end of each chapter you will find study questions that you can look over by yourself or even in a small group setting.
I really enjoyed reading this book as it opened up more of God’s Word to me as I learned more about the people that He has chosen to use. The subtitle tells it all: Common People in the Hands of an Uncommon God.
